I'm a new blender user, and i would like to work on a motorcycle project.

I downloaded a 3d model of an Honda Hornet in STL file, but I would like to be able to separate easily the different parts, saddle, lights, wheels, reservoir.

When i import the STL file in Rhino, I can select the parts, but not in Blender.

Is there a way to isolate every part of the models in different objects/groups to work more effectively on the model?

Here some images and the link to the stl file :

If all the parts are within the same object, you need to go in Edit mode, select a part with L and press P to separate, it will create a new object, switch back to Object mode, select this new object, go in Edit mode in order to work this new object.

If you want several meshes of the same object to be separate, select them or select all and choose Separate by Loose Parts.

To do the opposite, i.e. join several objects and therefore convert them into meshes within one object, select them and press CtrlJ.
